I have a nvidia vanta video card. Everything was working fine until I
did a pull last week. After rebooting, I started to get fifo errors
when rc was trying to start. Turning off hardware acceleration in
/rc/bin/termrc fixed this problem. Now rc is up but the mouse cursor
is not being drawn. When I move the mouse I just see a colored square
(the cursor's mask?). How do I fix this or restore the driver for my
video card?

fossil kernels boot off 9fat. 9load doesn't know how to read a fossil
partition, but it will boot /386/9* kernel as it is aware of kfs
partitions.

What happens when you pull on fossil? (What do you do if
you want it to change the kernel?)

You should be able to cp /386/_9pcdisk /386/9pcdisk
and then reboot. I am assuming that you are using kfs,
because otherwise pulling should not have changed the
kernel you were running.
